I keep seeing people coin out totem golem and it's such a terrible play. Like fucking really.
Also, the paladin deck in this week's brawl has dr. 6, but no secrets, lmao.

I used sideshow spelleater in brawl and it didn't do anything. It's a battlecry...I still have the hunter hero power not the paladin one. What am I missing?
Blizzard said something about how that card is disabled in Adventure mode, I wonder if they disable it in brawls too?
I had the same quest, and went 5-1 with paladin.

It doesn't show up on iPad for me. It's usually been there when playing on PC though.

Terrible Brawl but it is my second legendary out of Brawl packs since the beginning. Thank you Blizzard!

using flamecannon on a shaman's totem golem when you have mana wyrm and Sorcerer's Apprentice on turn 2 feels so dirty.

They never do.
Well then yeah its stupid.
I actually had 2x Shredder and 1x Murloc Knight and now actually swapped the amount.
It feels...so right. Had a really interesting game vs. a priest where I was able to keep constant pressure in the late game without playing any cards. I didn't play Tirion to dodge mind control and even after AoE would fill up the board. Murloc Knight gave me warleader so he had to shadow word death it, and I just grinded him down. He even used convert on my Justicar for super healing.

Paladin\Shaman Mukla's can basically turn a turn 5 slight advantage in a surefire win by having board control for two turns.
It's all that it takes.

No, you don't need the new ones. Just pulled Capt. Greenskin from my brawl pack today and got Captain's Parrot.

How the fuck is Justicar balanced with Paladin its fucking ridiculous. Should have just given them a 2/2 token not 2 1/1 its complete bullshit. God this Ebola garbage.

That paladin deck Slayn (?) posted earlier is magic. Warrior cleared my board three times and I still beat him.

Mukla's is good, but I don't think it's good enough in constructed. It's a win more card. I swapped them out of my paladin deck in favor of more tech cards to have more answers.
Murloc Knight is better in most cases.

NEbody? i mainly run patron warrior, zoo giant warlock, malygos mage, face hunter, buff priest, are any of the class/cards in BRM really worth progressing past wing 1 for? or should i just buy ten classics

Hmm....may be time to try out Saboteur soon.
I like to think of myself as a priest player, and I'm the first to admit that I'm not that good, but I really feel like outside of Dragons, Priest has it really rough right now.
I hope they get some love soon...rogues too.
Not sure if I'll stick with the class. I've only seen Kolento have any sort of success with it and I'm not Kolento.

Isn't that every Priest deck already?
I just witnessed the might of Dalaran in the brawl D:
disgusting.
Me playing shaman had full board, one giantm two fire elementals, hogger, Cairne, Thunder Bluff and whole lot of things and totems at 7 full board, the other side had a 2/4, he plays Rhonin. I go full face, he's at 6. I get my taunt destroyed and Rhonin goes into one of giants.... no big deal whatever... then he plays a flamewaker and apprentice ahahaha, so much for random deck.
My whole board got wiped.....
I play Sneed's and he ignores it goes face. I'm still alive and I won by top decking the third fire elemental. but man that was like fireworks. I still think it's not very playable, this won't happen in a real game.

I tried this guys fatigue (fatique) priest and it was pretty fun. I will probably mess around with it when new season starts.

TGT slow meta
Dragon decks would have been very cheap to build if twilight guardian was just a rare card, everything else is from BRM plus Chillmaw or like a couple of rare cards for priest/warrior. I"m not sure how a conditional a bit better than tazdingo is suddenly an epic card!
Greedy Blizzard!
Greedy Blizzard!
I feel like this set actually has a lot of epics like that. Hunter Lock and Load, Garrison Commander for hero power based stuff, I guess Mysterious Challenger for hilarious secret spam, etc.
Mysterious challenger and lock and load feel unique enough to me that epic is where they should be. Garrison commander, though, seems like he'd be great at rare (common 2 drop stats, kind of redundant but cool ability to work with inspire), but it's epic for some reason. :|
Mark Rosewater often remarks that a metagame is 120-150 'good' cards and no more, in any case - unless you start introducing clunky tribal bullshit.
Crap cards are just as planned. There have to be some, unless you make really tight sets.
Ironically, I have no interest in using it and got 2 of them. Had to craft my taunt dragons tho ;_;

Ok i just friended the saltiest Patron Warrior he keeps challenging me i have beaten him a total of 5 times already but he just keeps challenging.
HMMMM these delicious Patron tears.
HMMMM these delicious Patron tears.
I think Blizzard sees epics as cards that either fulfill a very particular niche and so it requires greater knowledge of the overall metagame to really know how to use (eg BGH or Blood Knight) or cards that require a certain amount of skill to use correctly. LnL is the kind of card you have to build a deck around, so I think it makes sense that Blizzard doesn't want new players just throwing it into their decks. Evem Garrison Commander fits a very particular niche.
That being said, there are some epics that I think fall through the cracks. Twilight Guardian should probably be a rare, as should Recruiter and Grand Crusader probably. And there are a few rares that could be epic I think, like Fencing Coach.
Power level should have nothing to do with rarity, unless it's a legendary. Murloc Knight isn't niche and you don't really have to build a deck around it. So it doesn't make sense as an epic.
